Kate Upton Tells SELF How She Got Her Hot Bod

Everyone's obsessed with Kate Upton right now (myself totally included). The two-time Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue cover girl is skyrocketing to supermodel stardom -- and with good reason. Sure, she's got a stunning face, and yes, when you talk to her you automatically feel like you're reunited with your childhood BFF, but let's give credit where credit's due: the girl has an amazinggg body.

So what’s Kate’s secret to baring it all in an itty-bitty bikini? Her trainer David Kirsch, and cardio, cardio, cardio. (Kate loves the treadmill!) Hurricane Sandy hit as Kate was prepping to be on the cover, so she had to get a little creative. She had David keep her in shape with a little help from text messages and the iOS-powered video-chat service, FaceTime, so even though he couldn’t train with Kate in person, he could keep her on track. They payoff of Kate’s techy training? Looking so hot that I can’t believe that Antarctica didn’t just give up and melt into one giant puddle while she was modeling.

Running isn’t Kate’s only source of cardio, though. She and I chatted about her viral dance videos to “Cat Daddy” and “Teach Me How to Dougie,” both of which have millions of views on YouTube. Get this: Kate learned both routines the day before she did the videos, and she still looks like a total pro. So she smizes to perfection for a living and can bust a move? It’s official: We love this girl.
